I would deal with President Trump's business no different than I would deal with any other business that comes before the committee.

We are going to have an integrated plan and work closely between commerce and treasury to make sure that we drive growth in this country. Our number one priority is sustained 3-4% GDP.

The IndyMac name had a lot of brand recognition - maybe for the wrong reasons, but there was recognition.

We want to cut the corporate taxes, which will bring back growth.

I ran a 'loan modification machine.'

I wouldn't in any way say I distanced myself from Wall Street.

We gotta get Fannie and Freddie out of government ownership. It makes no sense that these are owned by the government and have been controlled by the government for as long as they have.

I support the Volcker rule, but there needs to be proper definitions around the Volcker rule so that banks can understand exactly what they can do and what they can't do, and that they can provide the necessary function of liquidity in customer markets.

We've been in the business of regional banking, and we understand what it is to make loans, and that's the engine of growth to small and medium sized business.

I have very good friends on Wall Street.

The most troubling loan we had was actually to the 'Octomom'. That was a terrible situation, and we worked very, very hard to move her to another home that they could afford.

We shouldn't be encouraging people to set up Cayman Island funds.

There's very widespread grassroots support for Donald Trump, one that Republicans have not seen before.

I've always believed in supporting the best candidate at the time.

I think that the United States is the greatest country in the world to invest in.

There will be a big tax cut for the middle class. But any tax cuts we have for the upper class will be offset by less deductions that will pay for it.

I've had several different careers.

To the extent the dollar gains strength relative to other currencies, assets priced in those other currencies would become cheaper on a dollar basis.

The strength of the dollar has historically been tied to the strength of the U.S. economy and the faith that investors have in doing business in America.

Let me tell you, one of the most proud aspects of my career was buying Indymac during the financial crisis.
